Within the framework of Company HR Policy and the program of cooperation with MGTU, Shtokman Development AG became a partner of one of the conference sections — Offshore Oil and Gas. The representatives of the Company, who were the members of jury, were supposed to assess a large number of reports on actual problems of modern development of oil and gas business. Priority in the contest of the reports was given to such issues as simulations of a two-phase flow transport in a horizontal pipeline, simulations of stressed-deformed state of the rocks in the vicinity of Shtokman gas-condensate field, which confirms the high interest of the students in Shtokman project.
At a plenary meeting, dedicated to conference opening, Igor Tanygin, Deputy Director of Murmansk Branch of Shtokman Development AG, Head of Offshore, addressed students with a welcome speech.
